And some women, seeing the unfair attitude of their husbands, quickly figure out how to annoy and ruin their mood at any possible opportunity. How else to explain such disrespect between wife and husband?! Women must necessarily feel strictness from their men, this leads them to order and responsibility. At the same time the duty of a husband is always to be fair!

Strict and fair, not a picky bore who has forgotten about decency and respect! A wife’s lack of respect for her husband should be a reason for a man to think about his omissions in relation to his wife and family, and in other matters too!

Often men talk about the righteousness and obedience of the wives of the Prophet ﷺ, citing their behavior and obedience to their husband as an example to own their wives, but at the same time these men completely forget that the husband of these worthy women was the Prophet ﷺ himself - the best creation of the Most High, a role model for everything to humanity! Every time we hear stories from the life of the Messenger of God ﷺ about his attitude towards his wives, we are convinced that this is an instruction for you and me in relations with our spouses, as well as in the company of other people!

There is a wonderful story about how one man, having visited an adult married couple, was delighted with the attentive attitude and submissiveness of that wife to her husband. This guest asked about the secret of their well-being in family relationships, because this guest himself was also strict with his wife but did not manage to achieve such obedience from his wife. And then he received wise advice.

It turns out that the point is not only that the husband strictly demanded submission and obedience from his wife, but that it is always necessary to treat his wife tenderly and carefully! At the same time, one needs to give his wife flowers, gifts and just a joyful smile at least sometimes. Only by such an attitude towards his other “half” will the husband be able to get his wife’s obedience. And their family will be strong and reliable. InshaAllah!

So let us follow all the instructions prescribed by the Almighty, and adopt all the qualities of our beloved Prophet Muhammad ﷺ! May the Almighty save us from the bad people! Amin!
